Support for Kavanaugh Grows in the States

As we head into the Senate’s recess week, support for Kavanaugh continues to grow in the states:

1. Former Kavanaugh Clerk Justin Walker praises Kavanaugh in his hometown paper, the Louisville Courier-Journal“As a former clerk for Judge Brett Kavanaugh and a native-born Kentuckian, I believe Brett Kavanaugh will be an excellent Supreme Court justice who is right for America and right for Kentucky. He has been a leading voice for individual liberty and presidential accountability, and his qualifications and character are unsurpassed.”

2. Grassroots activists in key states are urging Senate Democrats to support Kavanaugh“The Susan B. Anthony List . . . has 500 canvassers across states like North Dakota, Indiana, Missouri, West Virginia, Florida and Montana. It is planning 29 events in those states during the month of August.”

3. Conservative women in Iowa voice their strong support for Kavanaugh“This is an honorable man that is respected by people of all political persuasions. His humility was in full display at his announcement hearings where he was seen standing with his wife of 14 years and his two daughters. I loved seeing him high five one of his daughters. It was a genuine moment that opened the window for us to see a man known by his daughters’ friends as ‘Coach K’ because of his volunteer work with their school’s basketball team.”’
